    control who has access to you & change your life

    filter out of your life people who don't deserve you, trust me, you your & peace increases. seeking answers from someone who hurt you is pointless, in my opinion, because even if they tell you the precise genesis of why they harmed you--you were still harmed and still have to heal from your pain. a huge part of your power is not in chasing the people who harmed you to answer the WHY/HOW COULD YOU, but rather in choosing who has access to you based on how they treat you, not whether you lo...

    your curiosity about my life is not something i am required to satisfy

    When people are being nosy, leave their questions unanswered. Especially when living an unconventional life, taking a unique path in life or choosing to be child-free--you will be questioned by the nosy and the presumptuous. Don't entertain them. You don't have to answer, explain or justify your choices. It's YOUR life, baby. Live it YOUR way. Wanna share your thoughts? Text me boo!

    not every hobby has to be a money maker

    Make time for the things you care about. Hobbies are important. Not every moment you spend in your life should be spent making money.

    Children Are Not A Retirement Plan

    Just as you plan for every aspect of your life, so too must you plan for retirement. Children are a blessing, not a retirement plan or financial investment you should be expecting a return on. Feeling entitled to your children taking care of you in your old age is selfish. You chose to be a parent, be a parent. Allow your children to grow up without worrying about providing for you. Allow any financial gifts from your child be from love, not obligation and after being pressured. Wa...

Sometimes the person with that courage becomes the black sheep, exiled from the family because of a refusal to go along with the toxicity.

How has social media impacted the shelf life of work and our patience with artists' process? From discussing the pandemic's impact on the arts to talking about what it means to change/grow as an artist, listen up and let's chat. Wanna share your thought...
